Add filter option for Update Classification

Open thatpowershellguy opened this issue 3 weeks ago • 0 comments

First off, absolutely amazing report! I've been using it for years and it's been a huge help for me.

I have a request\enhancement that I would like to see implemented and just posting it to see if you or others agree.

Would it be possible to add a filter to the "Software Update Compliance - Overview" report for Update Classification? Ideally, it would let you select the different options "Security Updates, Updates, Update Rollups, Definition Updates, etc.).

For background I work in the DoD space and so there is a major focus on Security\Critical updates. Currently, the report will flag devices as non-compliant if they are missing, let's say, a SQL Server Cumulative update with a classification of "Updates". This is an example of an update I would not deploy because 1) It's something our Application Development\SQL team would apply and 2) It's not a Security or Critical Update.

I can't exclude the SQL Server product using the "Exclude deployments containing the following products" filter because I do still need to apply Security updates for this product and report on those.
